This is a problem. If there are no NAL units currently available, then your
code is calling something that (presumably) blocks until it gets a new NAL
unit. During this time, the LIVE555 event loop won’t get to run (and, in
particular, won’t get to process audio). That probably explains your problem.
It’s important to appreciate that because LIVE555-based applications are
event-driven, all I/O should be asynchronous. You shouldn’t have anything
(running within the LIVE555 event loop) that ‘blocks’, waiting for data to
arrive. Instead, the arrival of new data needs to be treated as an
(asynchronous) event.
One way to do this is to have a separate thread handling your H.264 video
encoder, and have this ‘video encoder thread’ signal the LVIE555 event loop
thread using the “triggerEvent()” function - which is the *only* LIVE555
function that you may call from outside the LIVE555 event loop thread. For an
illustration of how to do this, see the pseudo code in
“liveMedia/DeviceSource.cpp”.

Thanks. Was this the *only* change that you had to make here - i.e., change
the three occurrences of “DWORD” to “DWORD_PTR” in the callback function
signature? If so, then I’ll make this change in the next release of the
software.
